I love everything you write so much and this, of course, was no exception. It was all perfect but this line was especially perfect: He’s still not entirely sure how he managed to win the heart of the most amazing woman he’s ever known, but he’ll never, ever, take it for granted.

Thanks so much!

I love all of this and for so many reasons. I think my favorite thing is that it really accurately represents that relationships can be messy and require work, even with people who are perfectly suited for one another. Great job!

This was just what I was going for. Thanks!

Loved this! Just the right balance between sweetness and angst, I think. Perfect solution to the weirdness of Ben not attending the Parks Dept Christmas party, too

I like how torn Ben feels between the wonderfulness of the relationship and the feeling of his own uselessness.

Exactly what I was going for. Thanks so much - and thanks for your help getting the link up.

That part where Ben decided to take the fall while protecting Leslie. That.

Yep, that.

Thanks!

This is wonderful. I think Ben being filled with so much self-doubt is a very realistic take on what would be going through his head in this period. Even though he's so happy about their reunion, it's totally natural that it would difficult to instantly switch from the heartbreak pre-Smallest Park to everything just being perfect. And especially when it combines with everything that happens with the campaign. You did a great job with that.

Though I'm going to pretend you made Claymation porn up, because that's not something that should exist. ;)

Thanks!
